O.K. guys, you did pretty good, not great, but pretty good:
gunbugs, you get a point for the blued toggle retaining pin.
gunnertwo, you get a point for noticing the missing chamber date, but you lose a point for not noticing that the date is missing from the front sight base as well!
Proofed, you get 3 points for noticing that the front sight is serrated all the way to the top not 2/3 of the way up as it should be (see photos). However, I have to deduct a point for not noticing that the base is undated.
How come nobody noticed the commercial C/N proofs? Don't you know that the German for Navy is Marine? Your lucky I'm in a good mood or you chaps would be in negative territory! There is one other red flag but I really didn't expect anyone to get it as it's not in the books yet. The relieved sear bar was introduced in late 1916 and the first 1200 aprox 1916 Navies came without this feature.
